Since we may be demoing NetBSD-Athena to IS, I wanted to get mwm
working.  There were three problems:

	* It was looking in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 for both its resources
	  and the system.mwmrc file.  I didn't do the cleanest job of
	  repairing this (I hardcoded "/usr/athena/lib/X11" into
	  ResParse.c), but it works and I didn't want to spend a whole
	  lot of time on it.

	* mwm was ignoring all of the lines in system.mwmrc.  I think
	  this is due to NetBSD's mblen() returning 0; when I rebuilt
	  mwm with NO_MULTIBYTE, it worked fine.

	* The Mwm resource file looked like the standard mwm one, not
	  the Athena one, so I replaced it with the Athena version
	  from a Decstation.

I created /mit/netbsd/dev/athena/mwm containing the Athena
configuration files and man page, as well as patches to the source and
Imakefile for compiling with NO_MULTIBYTE and for finding the
resources and system.mwmrc file in the right place.
